Currently Living at: DC area foster home See this playful cutie in this video! .youtube/shorts/S54kAOPjhH8, youtube/shorts/x9SC4osFK20. Piney is Looking For: His forever family! He's got all that awesome young-dog energy and is eager to have his own humans for long sniffy walks, romps in the park, and exploring the world - he hasn't seen nearly enough of it. He'd love to make pup pals along the way, too. Quality kibble, cushy dog beds, peanut butter-filled Kongs - yes, please. But you know what he wants most of all? To know where he belongs, to know he's safe and loved for all his days. What My Foster Says About Me: Piney is a sweetheart, he’s very cuddly - especially when he’s tired - and he loves being close to his people. He gets along great with my resident dog, and the two of them play together till they’re too tired to keep going. Piney is the first dog I’ve met who can truly tire my dog out, which is awesome for everyone involved! Piney is doing well on house training (only a few accidents in the house, and learning quickly) and crate training. He loves toys and bones too, and he hasn’t displayed any guarding with my resident dog (since neither of them guard, they’ll sometimes just rotate chews back and forth from each other till they’ve cycled through all of them haha, it’s quite funny to watch) Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
